Description

Slightly longer than its neighbor to the right, this route offers similar climbing at a somewhat easier grade. Begin just left of the rounded buttress with insecure liebacks up the thin cracks. Ashort traverse at mid-height leads to easier ground and the anchors. This route occasionally seaps after heavy rains.

Location

This is the second bolted route you come upon when entering the Red Light District area. It's immediately left around the corner and slightly downhill of "Circle K".
